Hello everyone,
I'm working in Saudi arabia on a mapping mission in the desert.
In the past 4 days, I crashed a phantom 4 and a brand new phantom 4 pro V2.0 flying the same area.
I was working with android device galaxy tab A7 and dronedeploy.
I worked previously on this site earlier this year with no problem even with the heat.
I checked the flight logs on dji flight viewer.
First crash : no alarm, the drone just dropped on the ground with 35% battery (brand new battery)
Second crash : the drone start dropping altitude and "GPS position mismatch" is appearing in the flight log. And the drone just dropped on the ground. (brand new battery, different from the first crash)
Both drone are destroyed...
Do you guys think it could be related to the heat? in that case wouldnt there be a "overheating" message in the flight log? For my previous job there I used to cool down the drone in the car before every flight but this time I couldn't do it.
Could this be a gps related issue? Interferences in this specific area of the site? It's complete desert.
Thank you guys for your help!
